Considerable research suggests that fewer than 25% of all job opportunities are ever advertised and fall within the open market. The remaining 75% - the hidden opportunities - are often overlooked by the job seeker who is unaware of their existence and the techniques for accessing them. By developing a community job portal, we are able to provide an affordable single repository for both opportunities and job seekers.

GreaterDaytonWorks.com is a regional job portal that makes searching for career opportunities and/or finding qualified candidates easier than ever. This site offers solutions for many of the concerns about on-line job posting systems.

The portal provides real-time job matching against skills required for a position, eliminates duplication of resumes submitted for a particular job, notifies job seekers when a position for which they have applied has been filled, and many other evolving features intended to save both "hunter and hirer" time and trouble.

The portal is free to all job seekers. Once registered, seekers can use the Job Search tool to locate and apply for full- and part-time jobs, co-op/intern positions, and civic leadership positions. Also, the job seeker can create a professional profile, which provides them continuous notification about future relevant career opportunities.

Employers who post jobs will be able to access resumes of candidates interested in their open positions, and the system includes job matching capabilities, skill-based resume sorting, and applicant tracking. Various pricing options are available. Employer information can be obtained by clicking here or by calling a MyCareerNetwork.com Representative at (877) 696-3896.

What do you mean by civic leadership?

Research suggests that to make a successful long-term connection between a job seeker and the community, the community must provide opportunities for people to explore new realms and work with their passions. Civic leadership opportunities include Board and Committee openings from throughout the community that require “passion.”

What are the co-op/internship positions?

To retain our young people – 18 and older - within the community, we offer a free community service which allows businesses to promote co-op/internship opportunities at no charge. To place an internship opportunity on the site, please email us or call (877) 696-3896 and inquire about intern postings. Please note that the employer and job seeker are responsible for working directly with the school to fill out the paperwork for credit.
